Other test meth-ods listed in 2.1 of this practice may contain sections pertainingto their particular significance and use.5.2 The physical testing procedures in this practice can beused in conjunction with lot sampling procedures as a basis foracceptance testing of commercial
21、 shipments of inflatablerestraint fabrics. They may be used to establish the criteria bywhich inflatable restraint fabrics will be tested by the supplierto determine whether a lot of material is acceptable forshipment to the purchaser.5.3 This practice addresses all the physical properties thatdescr
